My brain is fried and I don’t want to work. It is 15.40pm and it is grey outside. Feeling physically and emotionally tired.
I have lots to do.
I pat myself on the back for what I have achieved this morning – 3 major task that have been on the to do list for a few days now.
To get myself motivated without feeling overwhelmed I have set the computer timer for 20 minutes.
I will spend 20 minutes on a task that I have been avoiding for a week. This trick will help me get started and I might even work longer than 20 Minutes. Or even if I work 20 minutes only, I will feel better for doing some work on this task.
The 20 minute kick starter is officially known as the Pomodoro Technique. Click here to find out more.
I enlist the help of coffee, vegan chocolate cake and a mango sauce.
And I have set up myself up ergonomically at my dinning room table. I wrote a blog post on this -click here to read. Good posture will save you from neck aches, shoulder and back pains.

Thank you. I did 45 minutes and feel better for it! Doesn’t feel so daunting and task is quite interesting. But still a bit preparation and reading to do.
Thanks again.

Bella, we are kindred spirits 🤗
I’ve used the Pomodoro method when I was having trouble with distractions and it was sooooo helpful 👍🏻
I don’t use the timer any longer but keep an eye on the click and truly I find myself being more productive and better energy.
Goodluck 😊🍀
Btw…your workspace looks yummy!

Oh it was yummy, after all it is the dinning rom table.
I only use pomodoro technique when I am really stuck. Generally I get on with things okay

It is true that optimists, or positive thinkers, are at an advantage in life compared to pessimists. This is because of the effect your mindset and attitude have on everything we come across.

I love this technique! I’ve been doing it for a few months now and I’ve been able to do so much reading and writing. I tend to get very overwhelmed so knowing that I just have to work on a little piece for 15-30 minutes (depending) has helped me increase my productivity tenfold. My method is to set my FitBit timer on my wrist. It find it better than the computer or phone timer because it’s attached to me and it doesn’t get me anxious that way somehow.

Wonderful, so glad it works for you. It takes so much pressure off us – doesn’t it ?
I don’t have a fitbit! lol.
